.
What does RB1 Gene Analysis (Germline) measure?
Retinoblastoma is caused by heterozygous mutations in the RB1 genes. Retinoblastoma (RB) is an embryonic malignant neoplasm of retinal origin. It almost always presents in early childhood and is often bilateral. Spontaneous regression ('cure') occurs in some cases.
The RB1 gene is responsible for encoding the retinoblastoma protein, which regulates cell division and prevents tumor formation. Germline RB1 gene analysis involves the identification of mutations or deletions in the RB1 gene, enabling early detection an...
